YMMV, but if you're going to write a story based on or inspired by or even starting with a theme, wouldn't it make sense to keep it going rather than toss it out there and than go off on something else?

For example: someone requests a kink like watersports and someone else merrily agrees to write it. That kink appears for two sentences, enough to get it done, and then it's never touched on again. Wasn't that kink one of the main points of the fic? Shouldn't it have a bit more screen-time than two sentences? That feels incredibly cheap to me.

Another example: you start writing how Character A has had homosexual sex and Character B hasn't. You make a point of saying that B is uncomfortable with the thought, going so far as refusing to speak of it even while you imply that Character B isn't totally opposed to it. You have still made it clear that it's an uncomfortable subject. Immediately after that, you jump on the gay sex between A and B. You just completely dropped your previous point. You could have had a very interesting running theme and given the characters more depth, and instead you just jumped straight past that point and to the sex. What was the point of bringing it up then?

Definitely YMMV, but if you're going to bother introducing the theme or writing something based on a theme, shouldn't you stick with the theme? In a longer work, there are multiple themes, true, and the focus on one in particular could be lost, but in a shorter fic? You couldn't hold it that long?

Maxwell Demon!

I hope this fits even though most of the characters are human...

ANTM Cycle 13
Spoilers behind the cut...

Remus Lupin is not a feeble Wizard.

This is the man who, right after waking up, could non-verbally, without a wand, conjure a ball of flame, and then tell a Dementor to sod off. This is the only Order member save Dumbledore who was still standing at the Department of Mysteries. This is a spy and soldier who lived through the First War, and most of the Second.

He is not a damsel in distress. He does not need Sirius or anyone else to look out for him constantly. He is powerful, intelligent, and enduring. At the top of his game he is a force to be reckoned with.

Please stop forgetting or ignoring that.

TEASERS


( what hurts the most is being so close )

Peace loving doesn't mean weak minded, physically weak or emotionally weak. It does not mean the person in question is an idiot. It doesn't even necessarily mean they are naive. It also doesn't mean they aren't willing to get into a physical altercation, or even start a war.

There are a lot of people who are damned ready to kill for peace. There are terrorists/freedom fighters ready to die for it, start wars for it, commit genocide for it. These people are dedicated, many strong willed, intelligent, logical (I.e. sociopaths) people. (Edit: I mean this in it's most extreme form, not in general)

Going the less crazy route, peaceful people include the Dali Lama and Ghandi, Karl Marx, Lenin*. They may have had wildly different views on how to attain it, but these people believed in peace, at least as an end result.

So next time you're writing a fic, please think about canon characterization before you write a peace loving character as any kind of weak.

*Edit2: As many people appear to be confused, here I'll clarify. I don't necessarily agree with his tctics, nor am I saying he wasn't nuts, I'm just saying that right or not, sane or not, he thought what he was doing was the way to go.

thats all...

Princeton Offers Class on Models' Memoirs
Some people think that models aren't so smart...but think again! Models like Alek Wek, Irina Pantaeva and Jillian Shanebrook are accomplished authors, so much so that they'll soon be the subject of a course at Princeton. Next semester, the university will offer "Model Memoirs: The Life Stories of International Fashion Models." Here's the course description from the registrar's website:
Explores the life-writing of American, African, and Asian women in the fashion industry as a launching point for thinking about race, gender, and class. How do ethnicity and femininity intersect? How are authenticity and difference commodified? How do women construct identities through narrative and negotiate their relationships to their bodies, families, and nations? This course will include guest lectures by fashion editors and models; discussions of contemporary television programs, global fashion, and cultural studies; and student self-narratives about their relationships with cultural standards of beauty, whether vexed or not.

Sample reading list:
Alek Wek, Alek: From Sudanese Refugee to International Supermodel
Irina Pantaeva, Siberian Dream
Jillian Shanebrook, Model: Life Behind the Makeup
Waris Diric, Desert Flower: The Extraordinary Journey of a Desert Nomad
Mary Gaitskill, Veronica
Linda Welters and Abby Lillethun, The Fashion Reader

Reading/Writing assignment:
100 to 250 pages of reading a week; all readings in English
